How to Paint TREES and LIGHT

In this video I show you how to paint trees and lighting effects using oil paints. This painting features willow trees growing in a New Zealand mountain valley where the evening sun is bathing the foliage in light and shining through the leaves of the tree canopies.

In the video I will explain the following:

1. Composition
2. Colours and brushes
3. Blocking in the painting
4. Adding detail
5. Adding final details

If you would like to paint along with this, check out the link below for the written notes that accompany this video. Feel free to copy the painting and copy / use the reference photos that are in the written tutorial.
